A friend of mine bought a baby napkin as a gift, and she noticed how beautiful the napkin was folded. Smart as she is, she copied the folding into paper before she gave away the napkin, and now I have a new and wonderful folding technique to show you.

This folding can be used as a card, or as a very beautiful inside of a card. I will show you both in my tutorial today.

What you need to play along is cardstock, patterned papers and “All around the page” punches.

If you want to use this folding technique for an inside of your card, you just start with 8 ½”/ 8 ½” cardstock, and do the rest the same way as I have showed you. You will of course have to adjust the triangles to fit the new size.

Thank you so much Marianne for sharing this tutorial with us. You have made such a beautiful card here that it inspired me to have a go. I still have to stamp it in the middle but that will depend on who I send it to and for what occassion.
